giving it gas brings the nose up, hitting the brakes puts the nose down. It shouldn't be stalling unless you are tapping the brakes.

if you tap the breaks you need to pull in the clutch in the air. Also hit the gas a little befor you land and youll have nicer landings.Also pulling in the clutch doesnt make you nose dive.

unless your not on the gas when you launch off the jump, thenn youll nose dive

slam on the front brakes HARD, and you will fly high, smooth, and straight. but you have to hols the front brakes in when you land if u want a smooth landing

make sure your in the right gear. with bigger bikes you can be in a much lower gear and still go pretty far. stay low in the gears
